Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers

Stiff:The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers by Mary Roach
Everything you'd ever want to knowand maybe some things you wish you didn't come to knowabout cadavers.

What will really happen to your body if you donate it to science? 

  • ready to be dropped from a plane?
  • shot with rubber bullets?
  • thrown through a plate glass window? 
  • crucified and, three days later, wrapped in gauze to test theories about the Shroud of Turin? 
This is one helluva funny, chilling, educational, and entertaining read, and it is not in any way irreverent or disrespectful.  Now, that's not easy.
